I made this pie for thanksgiving this year. I actually tripled the recipe because i was making a deep dish pie. And it turned out wonderful. I did not make any changes at all and it was so good. It was the first time i made and ate raisin pie, im actually eating a piece now as i type. I made it for my grandmothers whose favorite pie is raisin and they LOVED it. I recommend if you have tried this recipe to do so. Its great!

This is in my oven as we speak--didn't feel the need to change a thing. My first raisin pie, and I was surprised how fast and easy it was to make. By the way, i love old recipes...and this is gonna be in MY family's heirloom recipe box, too!! So Grateful it was submitted!!

Definitely a great raisin pie! I made this to share with Mom & Dad and they loved it! Using a store bought crust, I found this to be a quick & easy. The recipe is wonderful as written. I will be making it again soon.

I have never had or heard of raisin pie before when a friend of mine commented "don't you just wish you could find raisin pie like mom/grammie used to make"....to which I said..."yuck". After the same fried had a radical surgery and tramatic diagnosis I made this pie for her and took it to her home. She loved it...closed her eyes and said..."it taste's just like my grandmothers". I would consider that a success!!

This raisin pie tasted awesome! The problem I had with it was it was not moist enough. Maybe if I increased everything but the raisins by half ? Any suggestions ?? If I can make it more moist it will be deeeelicious.

This pie was exceptional. I did use lemon juice in place of the vinegar and doubled the filling. There would definitely not been enough filling had you followed the recipe. I used a 9 inch pie pan. Will definitely make again.

My husband was been begging for a raisin pie for his birthday for the past 10 years. I found this one and decided to give it a try. It was wonderful! I was very skeptic of liking it, but I will make it again and again. It was so easy! I did use lemon juice and zest and Iadded Bacardi rum and vanilla extract to the water when I cooked the raisins. I am very pleased!

OH YEAH!!! My family absolutely love this pie. The only thing I will do differently the next time I make it is double the filling recipe to better fill my deep dish pie pans. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe!!!

This wasn't what I expected. If you really, really like raisins, then you would probably rate this 5 stars.

Maybe I did something wrong, but it didn't thicken up like my grandmother's use to I think next time I will add some corn starch but other wise it was good tasting

The lemon juice and the lemon zest make this pie a little too lemony for me. I'll cut back on the zest to about 1/2 next time and this will be a 5-star pie.

This is a wonderful pie! My dad has been requesting a raisin pie for weeks. My mother (now deceased) used to make Dad raisin pies, but I never got her recipe, and I have not been able to find the one she used. I printed this receipe off and made it without making any changes. It was delicious! My dad loved it and said it was the best raisin pie he has ever had, and he has had many raisin pies over the years! I think this had to be my mom's recipe. It is very easy to make, and it tastes great! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe!

This recipe is fantastic. I use Splenda brown sugar blend to cut back on the sugar and the pie disappears.

I went looking for a raisin pie recipe for my dad. When I gave it to him, he said it tasted just like the ones my grandmom used to make. It was just what I was looking for.
